The third section of Truth and Method has some helpful insights on thinking about the orientation of philosophy and the orientation of those who think in terms of world-views / language-views. Worldviews are driven by questions of pluralism, of the diversity of languages and ways of experiencing the world; philosophy does not deny that, but it is concerned with the nature of experience itself. That is, philosophy is not driven by the problem of pluralism but but by the possibility of truthful experience. Some accounts of pluralism actually lose the possibility of truthful experience. Others pay homage to pluralism but revert to a pre-critical account of truth. What is challenging is to account for truthful experience without betraying either pluralism or truth.
